About this event

  • 3 hours

Join us as we launch a reimagined community inspired by the group formerly known as Chicago Bauhaus and Beyond. (If you know, you know!)

We've rebranded as The Chicago Modernist Collective (CMC). This event's goal is to poll for fall event ideas, while offering space for conversation, community, and connection.

**UPDATE - VENUE CHANGE **

Due to a family emergency, the Keck & Keck home in Highland Park is no longer available to us. We are still hosting a party as planned at Who Modern in Skokie instead. The home tour will be rescheduled for fall.

Light refreshment will be provided as we co-mingle alongside the curated furnishings, decorative objects, and art housed at Who Modern, a showroom and gallery dedicated to all things 20th century to contemporary in Skokie, IL.

At 4 PM we will host a round table discussion that will set the stage for fall programming. We want to hear from you! What are you interested in seeing more of this year? More mid-century homes? Bauhaus era architecture? Modernist furniture design? Atomic Age novelties? The possibilities are endless! Let's discuss ideas for fall events - All voices welcome.

This is event is free of charge. RSVP required.
